How do I go about updating gcc to version 6 or greater on my CentOS 7 machine? And do so safely?
The easiest way is going to be to use software collections:

devtoolset 7 will install gcc 7 in a directory in /opt, which will not conflict or interfere with existing system packages. When you want to use gcc 7, you'd start a new shell with a modified path and other environment variables using:
scl enable devtoolset-7 bash
