Upgrading MySQL-client-5.5.25a to mysql-community-client-5.7.18

OS: centOS 6.9

I'm a newbie with mysql. I need to upgrade the MySQL that is installed on one of my Linux servers.

My question is, I have a server that is running MYSQL-client (and server) where "yum list installed" shows it as:

MySQL-client.x86_64 5.5.25a-1.el6 installed

I want to upgrade it with the following rpm:

mysql-community-client-5.7.18-1.el6.x86_64.rpm

So I'm wondering if these are two different kinds of programs?

Would I have to install one then uninstall the other, or would installing the "community" upgraded version would simply overwrite the old version?
