To determine the set \( D \), we must examine the behavior of the solutions to the differential equation. The general solution to this equation depends on \( \alpha \), and we need to analyze when these solutions approach zero as \( x \to 0^+ \). The solutions are determined by the characteristic equation derived from the given second-order linear differential equation. By evaluating the solutions for different values of \( \alpha \), we find that there are exactly 6 integer values of \( \alpha \) within the range \( (-2\pi, 0) \) for which the solutions approach zero.
Thus, the correct answer is 6.
