the last version of numpy to support Python 2 was 1.15

The policy decision on that was here:

that does include a claim that pip installs ought to continue working:

So as Alan says - more detailed information is needed.  Did some other 
package in your chain indicate a newer numpy version and thus there's no 
way to resolve the version matrix?
