As @daramasala said in the reply, "latest version of the support library is 25.3.1 which is Android 7". In my project, the Target Android Version was already set to 7, but then I set the Compile using Android version to Android 7 as well, and after that, I could update the NuGet packages without an issue.

You can set the Target Android Version, Compile using Android version as well as the Minimum Android version by going to project Properties from the Application section....

The error message explains the problem. The latest version of the support library is 25.3.1 which is Android 7. Your project targets Android 6. So either change your project's target (in Project Options|General|Target framework) to 7 (or 7.1) or use version 23 of the support library.
