I answered C because of the line "Nearly all of Motown's session musicians, arrangers, and producers were trained in this program."
How would I know to eliminate this as an answer choice?

I think that the part of the passage you are referring to would better be described as indirect influence. The paragraph starts out by telling us that the public school music program was critical, and indeed that most of Motown's greats were trained in the program. We also know that Hackney was essential to its establishment.
I think this is indirect influence. She helped establish a program what was in turn hugely influential. She didn't influence the majority of Motown artists through her 1-1 interactions which would be direct influence, but rather through helping establish an institution which in turn influenced the artists, her influence in them was indirect.
