We study linear perturbations against static spherically symmetric background configurations of General Relativity with a real scalar field (SF), which is minimally coupled with gravity; it is non-linear due to the presence of the self-action potential. The background solutions have a naked singularity at the center of the configuration. The focus is on the stability of the background and fundamental frequencies of the quasi-normal modes (QNM) of the axial perturbations in the Regge-Wheeler gauge. The problem is reduced to one hyperbolic master equation with an effective potential W\rm eff, which turns out to be positive for a general non-negative SF potential; this ensures the linear stability with respect to this kind of perturbations. For numerical simulations, the SF potential was chosen in the power-law form V(ϕ)∼ϕ2n with 2
