You can go stright to 7.5.
Do NOT start the services at 7.5, but first install the 7.5.0.3 or .04 patch,as there is a bug at 7.5 that may affect you.
Look at SORT for NBU (link on here https://sort.symantec.com )
and use the upgrade checklist feature and look at the 7.x upgrade portal

Hi Shakeel,
Few inputs from me
Copy all existing RMAN scripts while upgrading database - Media / Client systems b'coz at the time of upgradation all existing RMAN scripts will be overwrite with default sample scripts in default path.
