Under ANY states laws, your Aunt can’t be held liable for the debt unless your Aunt signed for the account. If she did, NOTHING else is relevant.

In the State of New York, the age of majority consent is 18, therefore at 18 you are considered to be an adult. So, unless your Aunt (unwisely) co-signed on this credit card debt and they are not in her name, she is not responsible.
