The fact is that Ubuntu 16.04 has not been supported for a long time. That's why problems like this are possible. You need to perform dist-upgrade on that system, and then you will be able to update your PHP versions.

When upgrading from Ubuntu 16.04 with dist-upgrade, will it remove PHP 5.6?
I have one domain setup with this old PHP version and I want to keep that for sometime.

Not sure if it removes it, but in that case you could always install it new, e.g. with some online guide like How To Install PHP 8.2, 7.4, & 5.6 on Ubuntu 18.04. You can have custom PHP versions with Plesk, e.g. described in
