Apple uses the terminology "upgrade" to distinguish major macOS versions. Minor changes within those major versions are characterized as "updates". If no updates are available, it means your macOS 10.9 "Mavericks" version is up to date. Version 10.9.5 was its latest release.

To upgrade macOS to its latest version, please read How to upgrade to macOS Catalina.
