If this is impossible, tell the co-author to save the files as 1.5.x via
File>Export>Lyx1.5.

As a general rule, at the time some LyX version 1.x.0 is released there
is also a release of some 1.(x-1).y that is capable of reading files
of files from 1.x.z for all z.

x=6 and y=7 answers your question ;-)

Is there some way I could open a Lyx 1.6.X file with Lyx 1.5.X?



You need to use 1.5.7, which can read 1.6.x files.
