Question:

On page 157 of the owner's manual for your 2015 Toyota Corolla it states that your vehicle is not designed for trailer towing or for using a trailer hitch receiver for accessories like a bike rack or cargo carrier and that Toyota does not recommend doing so. Ultimately the decision is up to you.
Should you decide to install a hitch receiver, then Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C11265 that you referenced is a confirmed fit for your 2015 Toyota Corolla. I have attached a video of this hitch receiver being installed. Curt does require the use of a Support Strap # 18050 for any non-trailer loads per their warranty.
To tow a trailer you will also need a ball mount like the Euro # C45572 with pin & clip # F-4 as well as install wiring on your Corolla to activate the trailer lights. I recommend the Tekonsha T-One # 118405 which will plug into the tail lights on your Corolla and a lead will be run to the battery for power. I have attached a video of this being installed on a 2009 Toyota Camry that you can use as a reference as well.
