Preventing the uploading of files larger than 5 MB is not feasible. The functionality is not present in SharePoint and you will need to cater for multiple ways to upload files (browser, OneDrive, API's, ...).
Using Power Automate you can re-actively inform the user and/or an admin person. You can also develop PowerShell scripts to detect large files or even use search.
In short, hard to implement and maintain.
