Do you see the "double loop" in the upper right-hand side of your iPhone? That indicates that it is connected to a Personal Hotspot from another phone. As such, it will not be able to update/upgrade iOS with this type of connection. Try connecting your phone directly to a Wi-Fi network (with Internet access) or to a computer that does.
