Back up your data, click here, and read the entire page. Mac OS X 10.7 and newer don't support PowerPC software such as Microsoft Office 2004; some other installed software may also be incompatible.

If your Mac doesn't meet the system requirements for El Capitan, it can't be updated to Safari 9.0. There are no newer versions of Safari for 10.5.8.

Upgrade to Snow Leopard, then update to 10.6.8 using the combo update below. Snow Leopard Purchase

10.6.8 Combo Updater

You can then upgrade from there using the App Store.

Do a backup before installing, preferable 2 backups on 2 different drives.
