MacBook
That would depend on the market introduction date of your MacBook Pro on whether it can be upgraded, and to what version of macOS.
From menu : About This Mac panel, what is inside the parenthesis (e.g. Late 2012) on the Mac description line. That date will be used to determine if you meet the hardware requirements for upgrade:
How to upgrade to macOS High Sierra
How to upgrade to macOS Mojave
How to upgrade to macOS Catalina
Understand that upgrading to Catalina is a big step if you have any 32-bit applications that you depend upon, or vendor software that is 64-bit, but not Catalina compatible. Catalina only supports 64-bit applications. You can use the free Go64 software to inventory your 32-bit and 64-bit applications. Also note that if you have older printer/scanners, their vendors may still only provide 32-bit drivers which also will not work on Catalina.

What year MBP? You need a 2012 or newer MBP to upgrade to Mojave or Catalina.
