I am working on Laravel 5.4 with PHP version 5.6.4. My goal is to upgrade my project to Laravel 5.7 with PHP 7.1.
Now my question is: Do I have to upgrade to 5.5 > 5.6 > 5.7 or can I go directly from 5.4 to 5.7?

The recommended method of upgrading is to create a new Laravel 5.0 install and then to copy your 4.2 site's unique application files into the new application. This would include controllers, routes, Eloquent models, Artisan commands, assets, and other code specific to your application.
Show activity on this post. If you meant to upgrade your current Laravel 4.2 project to 8.0, you need to upgrade to 5(5.0 - 5.8) first, then 6, then 7, and then 8.
You should update the following dependencies in your application's composer.json file: laravel/framework to ^9.0.
Just update your laravel/framework dependency to 5.7.* in your composer.json file. Since you are upgrading from 5.4 to 5.7, then you can easily just run
composer update
And if you modified some of Laravel's Traits or Methods in your 5.4 application, then you can check here for more info
