I think we need much more information about which version of Numpy
you are trying to install and how.

You are running an out of date version(ie not the latest) of an
unsupported (since 2019) version of Python. The latest urllib3
doesn't support 2.7 so you presumably are trying to install
an old version? Which and from where?

And given the antiquity of the setup you should probably mention
OS versions too.

This suggests version matching is critical and so we need
all versions of everything you are trying to use.

I'd say the clues are in the error messages. You need to
find an old numpy that matches your very old Python.
