MacBook Air Early 2015 Wont Update from Catalina 10.15

Hi, I can't seem to update my MacBook Air Early 2015 Model with 4GB Ram to a new version. This is a problem because I apparently need to do this before I can update my Safari Browser. Is there a way to update Safari without updating the OS? Online help says I can but I haven't been able to. Thanks!!
