Nitrogen reacts with oxygen and also exhibits +1, +2, +4 oxidation states. ... In the case of phosphorus, the intermediate oxidation states disproportionate into +5 and -3 in both acids and alkalis. Whereas considering the case of arsenic, antimony, and bismuth, the +3 state is stable with respect to disproportionation

Answer:
in Nitrogen family as we moves down the stability of low oxidation state increases due to inert pair effect.
that's why N,P have O.S of +5, and down to these +3 and +1 Oxidation state stability increases.
