With such scant information regarding your immigration history that you have posted, no one can answer your questions.
Write down your immigration history from 2001 onwards leading up to ILR (2012?).

It is not consistent with their policy to refuse you for a 15 years old Overstaying.

Overstaying is a criminal offence.

Overstaying means allowing your visa or BRP to expire and staying in the UK. Overstaying is a criminal offence. There is no "grace period" within which you can lawfully overstay.

Sadly it seems you got your ILR through long stay not the success of asylum case.

Hence you can only apply 10 years from the day you were here illegally, which is 2017. You can try to ask for reconsideration, but the law is fairly clear in this matter. This rule has been introduced since Dec 2014. Had you applied on January 2013, on year after your ILR, your case would most likely be successful now.

What is your timeline?

Something like this, just guessing?
Arrived 1998
2001 Claimed asylum
2007 Asylum refused
2012 Granted ILR, 14 year rule

What happened after 2007? Did you stay illegally then too? That'd make it 2022. Or did you get some other sort of visa in 2007? Then it'd be 2017.
