I suggest taking a look at the service module
https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/collections/ansible/builtin/service_module.html
You can use this module to update both YUM and APT packages.

Some packages have different names, so be sure to take that into account.
You can see an example here:

You can simply plagiarize the Ansible docs for yum to upgrade

https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/collections/ansible/builtin/yum_module.html

and apt  to upgrade

https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/collections/ansible/builtin/apt_module.html

however this is all dependent on your requirements, I use a precheck, upgrade, changelog collection of playbooks with host logic for the Linux hosts I currently maintain, depends on your estate.
