The model year of a MacBook Pro is available at Apple menu > About This Mac.

An early 2015 through 2016 MacBook Pro can be upgraded to the latest version of Monterey macOS 12 but no later. 

A 2017 MacBook Pro can be upgraded to the current version of Ventura macOS 13. 

For all of the above, see instructions in: How to download and install macOS - Apple Support

A 2018 or later MacBook Pro can be upgraded to the current version of Sequoia macOS 15. See: How to upgrade to macOS Sequoia - Apple Support


Also note that iOS is the operating system on iPhones while macOS is the operating system on Macs.
