If you see this document.

RFE(estimator, *, n_features_to_select=None, step=1, verbose=0, importance_getter='auto')

so first attribute is mandatory. rest of the attributes are optional. so you have to mention optional attribute and pass the value. lets say 15 for n_features_to_select .

So, in that case it will be

rfe = RFE(lr,n_features_to_select=15)

try overriding with giving proper argument names, in your case i believe you want to enter the no. of features hence try this-

rfe = RFE(lr,n_features_to_select=15)
