The App Store Updates page only informs you of updates available for the OS you are currently running.
As you are running an older system then you are probably up to date on that system.
If you want to install a newer OS that is called an Upgrade.
The model and year of your Mac will determine which macOS you can upgrade to,
read the following links.
How to upgrade to macOS Mojave - Apple Support
How to upgrade to macOS High Sierra - Apple Support
Before upgrading make a full back up of your Mac.
Check that third party apps you use have updates available for the new OS.
Check that your printers/ scanners etc have updated drivers and software available for the new OS.
If you are considering upgrading to Catalina be warned that it does not support 32bit apps.
Your Mac is probably running 32bit apps and these will need to be updated to 64bit apps,
some updates may be free, some may be paid. Use this app to discover which apps you have
are 32bit, https://www.stclairsoft.com/Go64/. Once the list has been created you can then
contact the developers of the apps to see if they provide 64bit updates.
See these instructions for installing High Sierra. https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT208969 I'd stay away from Catalina even is you can upgrade to it. Among other reasons, your probably have 32-bit apps you want to continue using. Catalina forbids the use of 32-bit apps. I recently upgraded a Sierra Machine successfully to High Sierra using the above link. Oh, and I didn't Eau Rouge's post before. Yes, Mohave should work too.
Back up your data, check your applications for compatibility, and depending on which MacBook Pro model you have, download High Sierra or Catalina.
