Answer 1

If you need to update packages from the standard repository, then just yum update. If you want to use another repository with a more recent version, then you need to connect the repository and install the latest versions. Here is an example using the https://webtatic.com
PHP 5.6 repository

rpm -Uvh https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/epel-release-latest-7.noarch.rpm
rpm -Uvh https://mirror.webtatic.com/yum/el7/webtatic-release.rpm
yum install php56w-fpm php56w-opcache

PHP 7

rpm -Uvh https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/epel-release-latest-7.noarch.rpm
rpm -Uvh https://mirror.webtatic.com/yum/el7/webtatic-release.rpm
yum install php70w-fpm php70w-opcache
