Well i got my car recently from a shady seller. i was wondering if there is anyway to tell if the miles have been rolled back on a 2015 cruze, i checked the car fax and it seems good, but when i checked the driving center dash it showed 3851 of gallons fuel used on a car with only 37000 miles, is this normal?

Why did you change the fuel tank? I've got two used ones but can't get rid of them.
This doesn't make any sense. The only time the trip odometer would match the actual odometer is when the car is new and the owner hasn't reset the trip odometer yet.
What does that matter? The trip odometer can be reset any time you want to. If someone rolled back the actual odometer, who cares about the trip odometer if it was rolled back as well?
The trip odometer only reads up to either 999.9 miles or 9,999.9 miles, forget which, then goes back to 0.0 so unless your 2015 is supposed to have under 10,000 miles, your premise is inaccurate. And of the hundreds of used cars I've owned, I can't recall any with more than 1,000 miles on them that still had both odometers match.
Well, my 2015 Volkswagen has 159,000 miles,

And my 2017 Chevy Spark has 110K,

so anything is possible, but if the Carfax looks OK and the seats, pedals, carpet all look like they are from a lower mileage car, you should be good. If you want to spend $5 for the NMVTIS you can run the vin at sites like https://dmvdesk.com/reports-2/nmvtis and get info that isn't always in the Carfax.
