Is your contacts associated with an email account? If so, login to that email account via a web browser and verify that the contacts are present. If they are, configure that email account on your new iPhone and enable the toggle next to contacts in the Mail settings. That should cause the contacts to sync to your iPhone.

Please don't worry, you can use Phone Transfer tool to transfer contacts, etc from your iphone 5 to your new 6s. It can easily transfer data between mobile phones on PC, such as contacts, text messages, apps, photos and more.
