DevForce version 6.1.16 doesn't actually support VS2015. The "DevForce EDM Designer Extension", which extends the EDM Designer with additional DevForce properties and provides code generation of the DevForce model, won't be installed with VS2015. Other components of DF which don't specifically involve VS integration will be installed though, which makes things confusing. You're getting the error because this extension isn't installed and the required assemblies aren't available.
IdeaBlade never released a version of DF2010 which supports VS2015.
You have a couple different options -
