I tried to figure out what happens if I proceed with upgrade through synaptic and it looks like it will uninstall many parts of my system so I am really concerned about it.
running
as is suggested here hasn't installed anything either.
What would you suggest to do? I would like to have the updated nvidia drivers but I don't want to risk breaking my system.
Thank you in advance for any help

Where did you get the kernel 4.9.0-7-amd64? I'm showing 4.9.0-6-amd64. I don't know whether or not the kernel is an issue but you might try the older one.

For info only, my latest update on July 21 installed kernel 4.9.0-7-amd64.
I am not irrational, I'm just quantum probabilistic.
Seems 375 was replaced in stable by 384 for spectre/meltdown mitigation reasons.
Given the array of multilib nvidia packages shown in OP’s post, it’s possibly some package depending on a 375 package explicitly - aptitude might be the tool to unravel it.
... assuming it’s a clean Debian system, which i’m not convinced of yet - unadulterated stable tends to work without issue in most cases.

Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
nvidia-driver : Depends: nvidia-driver-libs (= 384.130-1) but 375.82-1~deb9u1 is to be installed or
nvidia-driver-libs-nonglvnd (= 384.130-1) but it is not going to be installed
Depends: nvidia-driver-bin (= 384.130-1) but 375.82-1~deb9u1 is to be installed
Depends: xserver-xorg-video-nvidia (= 384.130-1) but 375.82-1~deb9u1 is to be installed
Depends: nvidia-vdpau-driver (= 384.130-1) but 375.82-1~deb9u1 is to be installed
Depends: nvidia-alternative (= 384.130-1)
E: Broken packages
Have you done an ‘apt update’?
The 375 version no longer exists in the stable repo.

4.9.0-7 is the latest Stretch kernel. dist-upgrade may be necessary to get it.
