Your project is currently targeting Android 6.0 but Android Support libraries v25.x require that you set your target framework (compileSdkVersion) to at least API 24 (Android 7.0) Nougat.

MonoAndroid 7.0:

Xamarin.Android.Support.Animated.Vector.Drawable (= 25.4.0.2)
Xamarin.Android.Support.Compat (= 25.4.0.2)
Xamarin.Android.Support.Core.UI (= 25.4.0.2)
Xamarin.Android.Support.Core.Utils (= 25.4.0.2)
Xamarin.Android.Support.Fragment (= 25.4.0.2)
Xamarin.Android.Support.Media.Compat (= 25.4.0.2)
Xamarin.Android.Support.Vector.Drawable (= 25.4.0.2)

re: Understanding Android API Levels

FYI: Open the Android SDK Manager and ensure that you have at least API-24's SDK installed, while you are there, install 25/26 and update the build tools and the rest of the SDK tool items
